Thermalright AXP-90 X53 Black Low Profile CPU Air Cooler with Quite 90mm TL-9015B Low Profile PWM Fan, 4 Heat Pipes, 53mm Height, for AMD AM4/Intel LGA 1150/1151/1155/1156/1200/1851 (AXP-90 X53 Black)

I installed this cooler to replace the stock Intel cooler when I upgraded my CPU. So far it's keeping up with an Intel core i9 9900 just fine! The install was easy since I already had the motherboard removed. The cooler comes with basic instructions and a set of brackets that are compatible with a variety of CPU sockets. The kit also included some thermal paste.

I was worried about buying this as it isn't a normal "name brand" cooler for my server rack. I needed something with really low clearance and I thought I would give this a shot. So far it's working perfect for my rack server running plex. Everything stays cool, it's quiet, it fits perfectly in the rack, and the value was spot on. Don't hesitate to snag it.

I bought the black low profile. This cooler is heaps better than the stock AMD stealth cooler. Smaller all around works way better. Installing it is not easy tho. If your motherboard is already mounted and your system is put together get ready to take everything apart it is not just drop in and screw down. If your building a new pc Installing this isn't that bad tbh but its def not the easiest. Also directions are trash. My cpu is an amd ryzen 5 5500 running a home server. I had the stock cooler installed with idle temps sitting at around 43 to 45 and running cinebench my cpu would thermal throttle. With this coller I dropped my idle temp to 34 to 36 and running cinebench never got over 73 c. So a massive massive improvement over stock. Honestly if your building out a new pc or home lab with an older cpu this cooler (i got the black one) Honestly is worth it for the 20$. That and Honestly its no louder than the stock amd cooler and runs at a higher rpm under load. My hd cooler fan is louder than this thing running at full speed and that's a 21$ noctua fan.

It's heavy for its size. I struggled to assemble it, but that was my own fault for being stubborn and not checking the instructions. It's a good cooler and maintains better temperatures than my stock heatsink.

It works fine if you let the fan at full speed. Then it keeps the cpu nice and cool. I just wished the price was 20 like the others. These do have a weird bracket setup as the 1700 brackets that came installed didn't actually fit my 1700 cpu. I had to use the second largest and that worked perfectly.

this cooler is being used on an asus Prime Q370M-C/CSM with a i9-9900k cpu. I bought this to do a simple build in a small form factor pc. I'm not overclocking or doing anything crazy. Just general workstation with the occasional movie conversions via handbrake. Again, i'm not doing anything crazy and wanted to stay as simple as possible whilst doing better than a stock intel cooler. The good: it has a low profile, quiet, and in use seems to be effective. The bad: the absolute WORST mounting solution imaginable, PERIOD! even someone with experience could damage their motherboard by over-torquing the mounting nuts. I can't even be certain i'm getting proper even contact with the cpu because the cooler stand-offs don't contact the board. it just kinda 'floats' on the cpu while being bolted to the board. and there really isn't any insulation between the metal backing plate and the traces of the motherboard, so that could theoretically cause issues. upon boot-up and going into the bios, my cpu was idling at around 95f, so it's doing something. I've gotta install the OS and try to see how well it'll do under use. I'm sure in that regard it's definitely more than adequate. I just don't believe saving the $20-$40 over a nactua or bequiet is worth potentially damaging important components like the motherboard. If you're not overclocking, i'd say you might as well save even more money and just use a stock intel cooler, otherwise pony-up and go with a more well-known enthusiast/professional brand like the aforementioned nactua or bequiet. update: this thing is terrible.. it might work if it had a good mounting solution so one could tighten it down properly without risk of damaging the other components, but.. i installed linux mint on a i9-9900k based asus motherboard. i wanted to test out how well handbrake worked. not thinking anything of it i tried rendering a movie. it started out at a decent rate but within less than 2 minutes, the rendering fps were less than halved due to thermal throttling. the case is completely open. i felt around the underside of the cooler and the cpu was waaay too hot to the touch. so, i'm gonna try and send this back.. hope this helps someone make a decision

Incase anyone is wondering, this cooler will cool and keep a 10600k at around 33-35 at idle, and the highest I've seen it reach in cinebench is 77 to 80. SUPER QUITE OPERATION. I do not overclock but my i5 was running with turbo. Some say it won't work but it 100% will. Cools better then the be-quite rock 3 tower cooler I had installed before. The 4 points of contact for the mounting surface is a plus as well. Looks great with blackout builds. Does sits pretty close if not flush against your ram if your running 4 sticks.

Using it to cool an undervolted 9850x3d in the k39 mini itx case. I swapped the fan with a noctua NF-A9x14. It can cool about 88watts of power while maxing out at 86c. I have the noctua fan running at 40% so it's pretty quiet (never tried the fan it came with). If you ramp up the fan it could probably cool up to 95-100watts but it would be very loud then. Overall i'm happy with the performance, I'm taking off 2 starts because I never got the fan mounting clips, and it was missing 2 screws (for the lga1700 mounting, but I had everything for am5 thankfully). Also the build quality isn't the best, there is some pitting on the heatpipes. The install instructions suck but it's simple enough (even though the mounting mechanism is trash). You basically just screw it in however tight you think is good enough, no springs or way to prevent over-torquing. I wish noctua made a 53-55mm cooler but until then, this is pretty good.

Ugly but does a great job.

Good product, does everithing one can expect from the specs and description. The only issue is the LGA1700 backplate interferes with some surface mount components on the back of the ASUS ROG Strix B660-i gaming wifi motherboard i am using. Unpleasant, but nothing a few minutes with a file couldn't fix.

En güzel düşük profil soğutucuları bu firma yapıyor. Performans yeterli ve son derece sessiz çalışıyor. Tabii doğru işlemci ile kullanıldığında. Son derece memnunum.

I am very happy with the product.

The product quality is good. It worked as intended. But cooking my ryzen 5 9600x cpu was a difficult task inside sugo sg13 mini itx case. There was not much of an airflow inside the case. I managed to make it work only through undervolting and underclocking. This is probably the best low profile cpu cooler in this range. But there are better coolers if space is not a constraint. So, assess your needs carefully before you make the jump.
